Acupuncture is not a quick fix, as each treatment builds on the next for a cumulative affect. At Good Health Acupuncture, we typically treat a new patient once or twice a week for six visits (twice a week is usually for more acute/flared conditions). If after six visits the patient has not experienced any improvement, acupuncture is likely not the correct treatment at the moment, and the patient will be referred to another practitioner. If the patient improves before six visits, treatment may be discontinued.

Many patients continue with acupuncture for maintenance or preventive care treatments. Every patient is unique and we work together to determine the ideal individualized course of action. We work with each patient to determine what best suits their needs. A patient’s progress is discussed at each appointment to customize their treatment plan.
